The Cassida 5520 is a desktop business-grade bill counter sized for small businesses, convenience stores, gas stations, fairs and festivals, and other cash-handling operations that need to count a day's deposits, a shift's drawer, or an event's cash take in a few minutes instead of counting bills by hand. It is a back-loading counter that runs at up to 1,300 bills per minute, with ValuCount for single-denomination total-value calculation, four operating modes, and ultraviolet counterfeit detection, in a portable 11.9-pound package with a built-in handle.
ValuCount is Cassida's exclusive feature and the main reason small businesses pick a 5520 over a bare counting-only machine. Instead of just telling you the count (175 bills, 300 bills), ValuCount lets you select a single denomination and the machine then multiplies the count by that denomination to give you the total dollar value. If you load a stack of twenties, select $20, and run them through, the display shows the total as a dollar figure (175 bills × $20 = $3,500) rather than making you do that math at the end of a shift. For businesses that count single-denomination stacks separately (end-of-day deposit prep, drawer close-outs, cash-only event takes), ValuCount saves a step and removes a common source of mental-math error.
The 5520 offers four operating modes to match different cash-handling workflows. Count mode runs a straight count of the bills in the hopper. Batch mode counts out stacks of a preset number of bills so you can band preset-size bundles for armored car pickup or bank deposit (set to 25 for strap packs, 100 for currency straps). Add mode keeps a running total across multiple hopper loads so you can run a batch, add more bills to the hopper, and see one grand total at the end rather than restarting the count. Add+Batch combines the two, running batched counts while maintaining the running total so you can band bundles and still see the full count at the end of the session.
Counterfeit detection on the 5520 UV model uses ultraviolet sensors that scan each bill for the UV-reactive fluorescent fibers and features embedded in genuine U.S. currency. If the UV signature on a bill doesn't match, the counter stops, beeps, and displays an error so you can pull the suspect note aside before it moves to the stacker. Separate infrared detectors run alongside the UV scan to catch counting errors (double-fed bills, chained bills stuck together, half notes) so the counter stops and alerts you to a count-accuracy issue rather than silently miscounting the stack. The UV sensors are tuned for current U.S. currency UV signatures; if you want stronger counterfeit protection that also checks the magnetic ink patterns on genuine notes, step up to the Cassida 5520 UV/MG Currency Counter which adds magnetic (MG) counterfeit detection on top of the UV scan.
The hopper holds up to 250 new bills at a load, and the stacker holds up to 200 new bills before you need to clear the pocket. The counter handles brand-new, worn, slightly damaged, and slightly ripped bills, which matters because real-world cash handling means your drawer never has 250 brand-new consecutive notes to run. The high-resolution LCD display reads out counts and totals clearly at desk distance. At 11.9 pounds with a built-in handle, the 5520 is portable enough to move between a back office and a counting station, or to a field cash-handling location like a fair or festival booth, without wrestling a heavy desktop counter around.
The 5520 ships with a 1-year product warranty and Cassida's lifetime technical support, so a question about calibration or a sensor issue down the road gets you a phone call to Cassida's support team rather than a shrug and a replacement purchase.
If you have questions about the Cassida 5520, whether the UV-only variant or the 5520 UV/MG variant is right for your cash-handling workflow, or how the 5520 compares to larger Cassida counters, please call us at 800-207-2259.
